What does your local Walmart sell (quantity/pack)? Surefire says that they will honor warranty if Duracell and Energizer batteries are used instead of Surefire brand batteries. But you have other companies that make those same batteries.

I usually use my Candlepower Forums username to take advantage of THIS DEAL - $1.30 for Battery Stations CR123s.
They also have Energizers for $1.25 (if you buy 100). LINK |

The Batterystation CR123A's are good to go. They're OEM'ed by a major US maker, or one of the Quality Japanese ones.
If you need the cheapest CR123A's possible to save every penny, I have had good luck with the Chinese Titanium Innovation cells too. $1.00 each. Try CPF2016 for a 5% discount. |

stay away from cheap ones.
the Surefire box of 12 for $19 you see everywhere is what you SHOULD be looking for. (IME) |

I've used the battery station ones in the past and also just bought the titanium innovation ones to try in some cameras around the house.

Most of these batt's are made in same plants and just branded differently. I go thru about 10-15 123's a month due to work. The .99 each ones from BJ have outlasted the Surefire ones on me.

Lot of info on the brand. the consensus is only one US manufacturing plant for 123a's but different brands have different specs. Bottom line from what I have read is ONLY BUY US made ones. $115 for 100 rayovac shipped is a good deal i think http://www.batteryjunction.com/rayovac-cr123a-100-box.html |

Good company to deal with and a site sponsor. Prices are consistent and this is the lowest price I've seen.
Streamlight CR123A 12 pack ~ $16.99 |

I had a 12pk of Streamliget that had inconsistent charges and seemed to die quickly (100% subjective).
I use Surefire now. |
